Valentine’s Day goes beyond a circle on the calendar. It offers a moment to speak from the heart without uttering a word. At Blooming Amazing Flower Company, each bouquet sparks its own gentle dialogue.

Our florists have helped shape love stories for decades and we’ve gathered practical, nuanced advice to help you select, prepare and care for romantic flowers that carry genuine feeling. Let’s make this year’s flowers linger in the memory.

Selecting the Perfect Valentine’s Day Flowers

Choosing Valentine’s Day flowers is not about picking something pretty and calling it a day. Every stem, every hue and every flourish adds up to a message. With the right approach, a simple arrangement can become a highlight in someone’s year.

Choosing Seasonal Blooms

Freshness begins with the season. Velvety red roses never lose their timeless pull, but Valentine’s Day does not belong to them alone. Tulips suggest hope and new affection. Hyacinths transform a room with scent. 

Turn to seasonal flowers for bouquets that last longer and often look more striking. Our florists blend popular classics, such as long-stemmed roses, with unexpected touches like Orchids, Viburnum Snowball or sweet-scented narcissi. The result is bouquets that stay vibrant well beyond their delivery date.

Deciding on Flower Colours

Colour sends a message before a card is even opened. Deep red roses signal strong passion, while pinks such as roses quietly say, “I admire you.” White blooms add a layer of sophistication and calm. 

Mixing colours lets you shape your own meaning, right down to the smallest stem. Flower symbolism is a language all its own. If you want advice, our team will help you find the words you need.

Personalising the Bouquet

Personal details set a bouquet apart. At Blooming Amazing Flower Company, we do not believe in one-size-fits-all. Want to add a sprig of fragrant rosemary? Prefer a bold ribbon? 

Handwritten notes and custom floral arrangements (heart-shaped, perhaps, or inspired by a favourite garden) turn a classic gift into something unmistakably yours. Every little choice becomes part of your story.

Preparing Flowers for Presentation

A beautiful bouquet deserves an entrance. The way you prepare and present flowers changes the entire experience. Small, expert steps shape the impact.

Steps for Flower Preparation

Proper preparation helps flowers last longer and look their best.

• Cut every stem at an angle with a sharp blade, never blunt.

• Remove leaves that would sit below the water line to prevent bacterial growth.

• Place flowers in clean, cool water immediately after cutting.

• Allow flowers to hydrate before arranging them.

Creating a Balanced Arrangement

Balance is a matter of technique. Vary stem heights for movement and natural fullness. Start with your main blooms in the centre, such as roses for Valentine’s, then add smaller flowers and greenery around. 

As you go, turn the bouquet in your hands to keep it even. Make sure each flower has breathing room. These techniques, a blend of artistry and practice, define the Blooming Amazing Flower Company's signature look.

Presentation Details That Matter

The final flourishes stand out. Wrap arrangements in tissue or kraft paper, tie with a carefully chosen ribbon and add a personal note for intimacy. Packaging can be classic, eco-conscious, or luxurious. Choose what suits the moment and the person. Every detail shows that you cared enough to go the extra step.

Keeping Valentine’s Flowers at Their Best

Flowers should make an impression that lasts. With careful attention, a Valentine’s bouquet will brighten any home well beyond February 14th.

Daily Flower Care Checklist

Follow these steps to help your bouquet stay fresh and vibrant:

• Change the water every two days and keep the vase spotless.

• Trim the stems slightly each time you change the water.

• Keep the bouquet away from sunlight, radiators and fruit.

• Gently remove wilted petals as needed.

Using Flower Food

Flowers need flower food to help protect and nourish your bouquet. If you’re planning to use it, make sure you dissolve the flower food sachet thoroughly before adding it to your flowers. The result is longer-lasting, brighter blooms. Every Blooming Amazing Flower Company order arrives ready to thrive.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

Sometimes, blooms need a little intervention. Drooping stems? Give them a fresh trim and place them in fresh water. If petals wilt, check that the vase is clean and the water is fresh. For flowers that seem reluctant to open, let them sit briefly in a warmer space. 

These fixes, developed through years of experience, help your arrangement look its best for as long as possible.
